Good!

Government is supposed to protect us from stupidity, not BE the stupidity (American here).

This action is BECAUSE they investigated themselves. Just plugging all the leaks now.

Tomorrow is a better day...for them.

You seem to need to tell people what they didn't say and tell them where you want them to go.

So... Could be a Republican, or a troll farm, or an A.I. extension for Chrome, or a bot, or my Ex (we still don't get along).

Say another stupid thing so I can figure it out.

Not understanding sparrows role in the game caused by the Four Pests campaign. MILLIONS DEAD.

The ecological repercussions translated into a humanitarian crisis of unprecedented proportions. The absence of sparrows, which traditionally kept locust populations in check, allowed swarms to ravage fields of grain and rice. The resulting agricultural failures, compounded by misguided policies of the Great Leap Forward, triggered a severe famine from 1958 to 1962. The death toll from starvation during this period reached 20 to 30 million people.

Are there any long term effects from that?

Sort of like what the tobacco industry did? Hide the truth under corporate profits?
